I've been spending too much time at home, watching porn on my flatscreen and jacking off on my tempurpedic mattress, eating oreos. While i'm thinking "i'm a fucking producer because i have an sp-303, just like FlyLo." If you're still with me; cool. I would say my happiness overall is a solid 40%. I got rejected from the Navy because i was a bitch who threw a temper tantrum at 17 and got into some shit. I'm 19 now, just shy of a few months before turning 20. I'm fucking young, full of energy,i'm stupid, my music sucks everyone's music on this forum sucks. HEAR ME OUT. I bet whoever is reading this, is living in the comfort of their mom or dad's house, or reading off their iphone or android, or off their fucking google glass. You are just as comfortable as me. face it. A lot of kids on here have talent, but have no experience. Like absolutely none. You don't know true fear, so how can you express fear in your music? I laugh when i read user's "feedback" on the battles now. I get that most are learning and have absolutely no clue what they're doing. But they're too afraid to try and experiment, which is what hip-hop is built off of. If you're too afraid to try anything then stop pretending like this is for you. do something else, go to college and get a degree, and have 200,000 worth of debt. I don't need to validate my music to anyone, i could present a masterpiece and have some dipshit say "Nice groove, very compressed, but you need more samples" Fuck that. I suck but from now on i'm going to be miserable while i make music and i hope others are too. If you're comfortable while making a beat, just know no one will fucking care, why should i care? That's all i've really want to say, dust in the wind, fuck being comfortable, #sadlife. You should listen to my music because i'm the best.

Fvck, now I gotta go get me some damn Oreos. Thanks a lot man...

You make some good points here. Bottom line should be make music because you enjoy it - improve your skillz because you want to, not for anyone else.

if you weren't sitting around jerking off and eating cookies the music would probably sound better. To me, being comfortable is amazing. Your view seems very narrow and I'm not trying to blame you for that. Mine was when I was your age. If you can't appreciate the music here, its your ear.

You say comfort but I'm pretty sure you mean complacency.

That's exactly my point. My music is shit because of sitting around jerking off to asian porn. Name one artist where they got the recognition they have now because they were comfortable. I love most of the music here, but why should i listen to you if you want to be comfortable, that's not interesting.

No, i mean comfort. The fact that you were focused on trying to change my grammar, instead of seeing my point; shows how simple minded you are.

Sorry man, one of the side effects of me being a lazy shit. hahaha. I only create anything for me now, it's therapeutic to me.

I was drunk last night and didn't explain what I meant by "being comfortable is amazing". When you finally get a day off at the end of a 70 hour work week, that comfort is heavenly. On the other hand, trying to find comfort in your craft is dangerous since the way to progress is to step outside of your comfort zone and without progression the craft becomes boring.

Art is an interesting thing, anyone can create it and it can be created for a multitude of purposes.

Jacking off eating cookies and porn is boring, but that was my life. I'm tired of that life. That's why i moved into a storage unit in LA with a desk, chair, laptop, a futon and a ton of supplies. I'm telling people to be a fucking artist. If you're young, now is the time to at least make an attempt to follow your dreams, whether you fail or not. No one is going to hand me anything. I have to manufacture misery, work and create. My parents and friends all laugh at me when i told them I live in a storage unit. But they're just talking, while i'm in this shitty storage unit creating. Sure I can't cook in here, and i'm starting to smell like bum-piss, and winter is coming and I have no heating, and I'm starving. I'm more happy now than I was when I lived with my parents. If this gig doesn't work than i know that I tried, I have the rest of my life to be comfortable.

My deal is i love the approach of creating on the SP but when im done... i dont always feel a need to post it up on the internet or even keep it stored on my laptop piling up with other mp3 files i dont really listen to...

I do find it fun to look back at stuff i made, sounds a lot better when i forgot i made it... I often times just want to delete beats i make.

i do it mostly for the fun of creating, the side effect of having beats to show people doesnt really do much for me other then get a "neat" from a friend of mine or something...

i dont think i ever intended to make a profit off of the beats i make

its just fun

Not really sure how you can tell from reading posts on a forum what life experiences people have and who still lives with their parents. Sounds like someones having a last bout of teenage angst after just moving out of their parents house. Personally i dont really care about sp users level of comfort, if theres some good stuff, i download it, if not then i dont.
Seems strange that last week you were asking for PMs about your music now youre having a dig at the users on here

I don't expect anyone to give a fuck about me, I put this post up so someone else who is in a similar situation like MINE,(eatcookies,porn,sleep) could see why I did what I did, and maybe help them see that you have it in yourself to better your life. It doesn't have to be exactly what I did, Some people just can't handle that lifestyle. I have some advice that makes sense to them at a certain time, so they can pick and choose what works for them at their point in life, and purge the rest.

I'm disrespectful and ignorant for shit I can't control? I still stand by what I believe. Dude, i Just want to bless people with my shitty music and art, who gives a fuck that i'm now a squatter.

Pretty much burned bridges with this "safety net". I'm not saving anything for the swim back. If I fail, oh well i'll probably be dead behind a seveneleven or whatever, but at least i'll die happy.

I've literally seen homeless people walking with Iphones in their hands. People are dying of ebola, well guess what? That shit would still be going on whether I lived like I do now or not. It's just now my life is fucking exciting.

Too many people tell me what I can and can't do. Everyone worries about safety. You can sit in the comfort of your own home and judge me that's fine. "Oh he's just an angsty teenager, he'll learn soon enough how the reral world actually works". Life is finally exciting to me. I look forward to leaving my unit every morning now, and explore the shittiest parts of LA and meet interesting people. I know everyone in here has the potential to be better in their craft. I've been over with this post, If someone reads this and i've provided you with tips on life then take that and keep moving forward. Fuck I love this forum.

Speaking of comfort, there is definitely some truth to the idea that a happy (perhaps comfortable) songwriter has a hard time writing. I can say it feels that way to me. I have a decent income, home, wife, kid, etc., and now it feels tough being creative. When I was younger, I had all sorts of shit going on like divorce, shitty job, and I was pumping out songs like nobody's business.

I'm sure it's all in the mind...sigh. Now where I did I put those damn Oreos?
